    Who shoots M855? and Why?

    I don't shoot it because steel ammo is not allowed on the range I use. I have 400 rounds in the safe. 200 from last week and 200 from a few years back. It is good for stock since I cant shoot it so it stays put.

    Smallest, Lightest, .32 Revolver ...

    2nd vote for Colt Pocket Positive. Perfect little gun.

    Shield vs XDS

    I think it is a good thing that the shield mag will not eject easily by pressing the mag release when it is full. Mine is that way as well. Never had it pop out while carrying.

    Nills P-232 factory wood grips?

    Houge makes nice Sig grips. Have 3 pairs. Minor to no fitting. No logo and not lasered. Very nice. Look great. Put rosewood on the blue 230. Great gun for 18 years.

    "The Best Single Stack 9" ?

    I went with the shield in 9 but my P239 is a "better" gun. Just not a 9, a 40/.357. A little on the large side for me for EDC but mote accurate and pretty. No failures ever in either to date related to the gun. They are in the rotation along with a pair of .380s: P230 and an M&P BG.

    How Many Guns Are Enough ?

    I think a reasonable number approximates your age. Ok, make that a minimum number. I am not close to retirement but plan to reach a very, very old age.

    Did I do my first C&R bound book entry correctly?

    I use a similar template but added a cost field so I know what I paid for the gun all in.

    No charges in Chicago CCW shooting

    I do feel for their next victims who will likely not be so well armed.

    Chicago Murder rates plummet

    I've had my CCL for about a month with zero affect on the crime rate. It was a much worse winter than last year. The two before that were extremely mild. They will make up for it in the summer. Top Cop Streetlight McCarthy claims his policing strategies should be credited. Come August he will...

    What are the hot C&R items right now?

    I just received an SOG P64 and it is nice. A little light wear at the muzzle is all. The import marks are large and rough however. And the Wolff spring kit is required. The DA pull is awful.

    Sig p239

    Sig 239 .40/.357 Sig This is my primary carry gun. It is the SAS Gen 2 variant in .40 although I prefer the .357. Grips are Hogue Coco Bolo.

    Is it worth buying something in .357 SIG?

    I'm no ballistics expert and I don't reload. I own all the common and many less common calibers. My long time favorite is a W German Sig 226 9mm. My primary carry is a Sig 239 .40 in which I prefer to shoot and carry loaded with .357 SIG. I read what is posted about +p+ = .357 sig but for us...

    What are the hot C&R items right now?

    SOG I would say the M57 Tok is the best. The cz50 was very nice. In rifles the M44 and Manlichers. I would avoid the you go SKS they are very rough. Bought all these within 2-4 months.
